Thank-you again for the reviews. I didn't realise that it's been about 6 months since I updated, I'm sorry.

Guest GlanceonHearts I realised that there was the typo and I did edit but it didn't save. Thanks for noticing it and telling me though, I'll glad you liked the chapter.

''So how's therapy been?''

''Good.''

''Really? Is that all I get? First you say I can't come and now you're leaving me without any information.''

''It's only been the past couple of times, Rach and it's only because I want to prove to myself that I can do this on my own. You've helped more than I ever thought possible. You can't know how thankful I am for that.''

''That's all fine and dandy but I still want to know how you're doing. Are you anywhere near walking again?''

''You ask too many questions.''

''Quinn.'' Her bottom lip stuck out, her eyes bigger than normal and she had a fake whine in her voice which was adorable. ''Quinn! You can't just leave. Lucy Quinn Fabray, stop right there.''

''You have to come and get me.''

Oh this is so on.

Well it was, until I turned into the corridor and ran into Rachel's dad.

''Mr. Berry! I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I'm so sorry.''

''Quinn, calm down I'm perfectly okay. Please stop calling me Mr. Berry, you know how it annoys me, my name is Hiram.''

'I'm sorry, Hiram.'' Rachel comes racing round the corner, jokingly angry.

''Oh, well I see why you were in such a rush.'' he chuckled to himself.

''Dad, I didn't think you were home.''

''Yeah, I got finished early at work.''

''Okay, me and Quinn were just-''

''I don't need to know what you were doing, sweetheart. I'll see you both later, yes? Quinn, you are staying here for dinner, it's spaghetti night.''

''Yes, Mr.B- Hiram. Thank-you.''

''Bye, Dad.'' She ushered him on when he got the hint and went to his office.

''You don't have to stay if you don't want to, it'll be awhile until Daddy gets home.''

''I'd like to, if that's okay?''

''It's great, yes. ''

''Good.''

….

Truthfully, therapy has been going well. What I told Rachel was true, I don't want her there because I want to prove to myself I can do it by myself and all I don't want my first steps that she sees to be in a stuffy hospital room. It's been the best motivation, not bring able to kiss her after all this time to be so close but being able to do it only because of something I can change has helped me get to where I am now. I want to walk towards her and pull her into my arms and feel her lips on mine. I have taken a few steps on my own and I hope after tonight's session that I'm more stable.

…..

The last day of the assignment, the last day of the fake part of mine and Rachel's assignment, the last day that I ever have to pretend to be anyone but myself. This is it. I wear my own selection of clothes for the first time in a month and have breakfast before my mum drives me to school, which Rachel would normally do but she couldn't today. I can't remember why but she said she had to be somewhere.

Rolling through the school doors seems strange somehow, everyone looks at me and not like they usually do, in a way that makes me think they're waiting for me to say something. It gets even weirder when I'm about to turn the corner and the corridor goes silent. I notice then, the only two people not facing my direction. The two people stood in front of Rachel's locker, hands clasped, deep in discussion.

I've been thinking that I'm going to go back and rewriting this at some point so I can't promise an update anytime soon.
